That is an exceptionally promising response for my problem :)

I did notice that a regdb package exists, and I do have it installed. This possibly explains why that doesn't fix it.

I can try and dig into this package to see what’s what — but I’ve no idea of what symlinking might be needed. Any hints off the top of your head would be welcome. If not, I’ll try and look at it later and may have some questions for you…


Thanks!
